Install and Configure PostgreSQL

After you have installed PostgreSQL, you must carry out the following configuration changes.

Create a PostgreSQL user for IDOL Site Admin to use when it connects to the database. For more information on how to create a new PostgreSQL user account, refer to the PostgreSQL createuser documentation.

NOTE:

You must also create an associated database for that user.

In the pg_hba.conf file, configure PostgreSQL to accept connections from the IDOL Site Admin host. For more information about client authentication, refer to the PostgreSQL pg_hba.conf file documentation.
